Business Model
Create greater value Up-sell customer
SMS Photo-mail Video-mail
Create new customers Family plan Prepaid
Create “stick” Avoid commoditization

Challenges
Staying compatible “Five-Nines” Reliability Financial limitations of existing carriers
Can’t build all of it “like we used to do”
Standard hardware platforms (cPCI and ATCA) Development time – “IMS is a five year project” Regulation hurdles
E911 CALEA

![Page 16: AudioCodes – A VoIP Leader 13 Years of Operation Focusing on VoIP Media Gateway & Media Server Technology Field proven technology: Over 12 Million.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7c5503460f94b7ea94/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Business Model
Build a community of users Parasitic network application Charge for “off network communications”
Calls to PSTN IM
Optional Advanced Applications Messaging, IVR, Conferencing Spam, Spim and Do-not-call protection
Advertising? Business Edition

Challenges
Operating on a network you don’t control NAT, Firewalls, Packet filters Building a brand name Turning “cool” into “cash” Fickle user base Desktop crowding Support Regulation?
![Page 18: AudioCodes – A VoIP Leader 13 Years of Operation Focusing on VoIP Media Gateway & Media Server Technology Field proven technology: Over 12 Million.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7c5503460f94b7ea94/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Conflict
Can these two very different approaches
co-exist?
Yes
![Page 19: AudioCodes – A VoIP Leader 13 Years of Operation Focusing on VoIP Media Gateway & Media Server Technology Field proven technology: Over 12 Million.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7c5503460f94b7ea94/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
They need to co-exist
Neither will fit every customer
Each will find their “purpose”
Consumers will drive adoption
Standards (like SIP) will allow interoperability

What are we doing? Working “both sides”
Products for both markets
HA Systems equipment PCI-based equipment CPE equipment Best of Breed Based on common software base
![Page 21: AudioCodes – A VoIP Leader 13 Years of Operation Focusing on VoIP Media Gateway & Media Server Technology Field proven technology: Over 12 Million.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7c5503460f94b7ea94/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Our biggest challenge?
Being agile enough to address both:
Large NEPs and OEMs and
Smaller more agile ISVs and .com software companies
![Page 22: AudioCodes – A VoIP Leader 13 Years of Operation Focusing on VoIP Media Gateway & Media Server Technology Field proven technology: Over 12 Million.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7c5503460f94b7ea94/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What can you do?
Standards are everything Put an end to the “download
my client to talk” thinking
Be responsive to market needs What ever happened to KISS approach?
Don’t make client/devices so complicated they’re useless
Is IMS KISS?
Participate in developing the regulation strategy
Proprietary
